Topic: Question Regarding Coding&Mysql Database

Ok on my site people sign up and login to reach member only things such as games etc. But when they go to the forum they have to resign up and login. Thus people can steal other peoples aliases. An example being

User Abc is a trusted mod for the site
User cba is hated
They both sign up for site but Abc didnt sign up righ taway
Cba signs up as Abc for the forum
Abc tries to sign up and the username is taken

Anyone know how to make it if they sign up for the site they sign up for the forum too

Well, I guess by adding the user to both the "site" and forum database when they register in one of them. If you want to know how a user is added in the forums, check out register.php.

It's a bit tricky. You would need to know some PHP to do it.
